Persevere, people.

I know a lot of people come to this section to evaluate if it's worth it watching based on other's opinions. So I'm gonna give my honest opinion but regardless of that, I think everyone should try to watch at least the first episode, and ideally til the fourth. I'm saying this because I wasn't that excited until episode 4. Also, I'm terrible in giving ratings, so don't trust my grades, just read this. I'll try not to spoil anything.

So let's go.

First, the Story: I'm "relatively" new to the kdrama world, it has been almost a year since I started and even though I've watched over 50 dramas so far, it's mostly from 2016 to 2020, so I haven't watched a lot of classics but based on my experience, this "mafia" related, coming from another country, being essentially and unapologetic on the other side of the law is something new to me. The fact is that Vicenzo is someone who did, does and plans to do illegal things, despite being apparently a good person. I started not that excited because the story didn't caught my attention at first. I guess the whole Babel's Pharmaceuticals issue was not thoroughly explained in the beginning, I had a feeling that they just said "Just know Babel is bad." because the story begins in the middle of the problem, but things became more clear as the story developed (and I got more interested in it). I was surprised by three characters: a death and two revelations. Perhaps I was surprised because as I was not invested, I didn't pay much attention. So even though the first three episodes weren't THAT thrilling, a got really excited in the fourth and I have a really good feeling about it. I know a lot of people are not interested in romance in a drama like this, but I love romance in any kind of drama, so I'm also expecting a good one in this.

Second, the Cast and Acting: starting with Song Joong Ki (Vicenzo), I personally think he is a great actor overall, haven't watch a lot of dramas with him (kind of dropped Descendants of The Sun, though I plan on finishing), but I just finished Arthdal Chronicles, and his acting was amazing in it, so I expected a good job in Vicenzo and I'm not disappointed. I think he's doing an amazing job, even though I guess the writers will make him to be not as ruthless as the first episode led us to believe. I think he's good in portraying emotions, specially in the court flashback scene, we could really see him struggling inside about his mixed emotions; Now on Jun Yeo Bin (Lawyer Hong Cha Young), I not really into those type off exaggerated and loud characters like she is in the beginning, but I do believe she's slowly maturing. I guess she's trying to be someone she's not due something that will later be explained, and has deep unresolved issues to deal with. As I said, I love romance, so I think her personality contrasts with Vicenzo's, therefore I'm expecting a well developed relationship; I guess the whole building squad are there to provide comedy and lightness to the drama, and I always like this type of groups. Extra opinion: I love the Vicenzo and italian Chef interactions and I'm waiting for more.

Third, Music: I didn't really paid attention, so I'm thinking not remarkable? I did notice some italian/opera thing, which I guess fits. Will pay more attention from now on.

Fourth, Rewatch Value: can't say it yet, I'm not really a "rewatch" person, so no opinions on that.

Fifth, Overall: I think it's definitely worth watching, you can ways drop if you don't like it. But I would definitely put in the "worth watching" category. If you trust me and persevere till at least the fourth episode (the best for me so far), I think you won't regret it.

Ps.: I loved the pandemic references, they obviously are not in a pandemic (they just occasionally use masks to hide their faces), but it was mentioned playfully social distancing, quarantine and they checked temperature for a party. I liked that.
